SPM's new avy is rather scary. . .

I agree.

Also it appears Morm has returned to his gun-wielding monkey avatar, though I'm going to miss Homer.

Oh I'm sure he'll make the occasional cameo now and again.

It must have been before my time. . . The avy I connect with Mormegil is that weird little monkey, no guns and you could only see the face (did it have a hat?)

No but it did have glasses and he will return again one day, but Kitanna is correct this was my first ever avvie and holds a special place in my heart because...well it's a monkey with a gun and a pink shirt.

SPM: worrying. The Downer should investigate our friend's new image in its gossip column.

Thinlomien: we will try to fix your mind.

My new alter ego's name is Barney. And thanks, Hookbill, but I am afraid that he doesn't sport kitchenwear.

For further information, you would have to have been watching Channel 4 (UK) at 11pm the past few weeks (though not if easily offended) ...

Folwren · 09-01-2006, 05:58 AM

CaptainofDespair! I find your present Avator very neat. What's it a painting of? Angle of Death?

Kitanna · 09-01-2006, 08:18 AM

I like Brinniel's avatar these days. And if I'm not mistaken this is the painting it comes from.

ninja91 · 09-01-2006, 08:31 AM

No offense to anyone, but I love mine! The Drow elf Drizzt with two scimitars... he looks cooler than Legolas. Admit it.
This probably wont score points with my fellows here...

Oh! He holds two scimitars! I thought it was a long whip. How disappointing.

It is pretty cool.

JennyHallu · 09-01-2006, 11:51 AM

Those aren't scimitars. Scimitars are curvy. Even in 3.5.

Gil-Galad · 09-01-2006, 01:50 PM

yeah those aren't scimitars.

I didn't realize it was Mormegil's first avvie, the one that helped perpetuate the myth of him being female (or at least for me

). I'm partial to the glasses monkey avvie of which Rune speaks.

I see that Encataire has gone back to her avvie of the lady with spooky eyes. I can't help it, I love it.

Yeah, it made me think he was a girl, too. That was when I was first finding my way around the place and getting to know the inhabitants of the barrows. The embarrassment it caused me nearly scared me off.

I don't. *shudders* Sorry, Encataire. . .it disturbs me something awful. She looks like she has two eye infections.

Mithalwen · 09-02-2006, 01:49 PM

I thought he was a girl too at first... in fact in the first WW game I think I was in total confusion about he gender of both talking swords

. And of course it didn't help that Morm's picture was a family group.... I reckoned it was probably not the cute toddler but.....

shieldmaiden4xsword · 09-02-2006, 03:40 PM

yeah.....kinda spooky, Encaitare's..... sorry.

High King Fingolfin · 09-02-2006, 04:21 PM

Those are scimitars and they are curved, they're just at a weird angle.

Gil-Galad · 09-02-2006, 05:29 PM

i still say they don't look like scimitars, the sword around the handle looks jagged almost... the pic =is too smal lfor me to determine

shieldmaiden4xsword · 09-02-2006, 05:37 PM

yeah.... the pics are pretty small. all my avatars are too big.

ninja91 · 09-02-2006, 05:38 PM

They can be anything you want them to be.

(within reason, of course) sorry, Gil

Gil-Galad · 09-02-2006, 05:47 PM

Well not really, this is still a family-friendly site.

shieldmaiden4xsword · 09-02-2006, 05:51 PM

Gil's right.

Do you like mine now? LOL

I've always liked that avvie of Encai's. It reminds me of Tool's "Schism" music video.

shieldmaiden4xsword · 09-02-2006, 05:54 PM

Oddwen, I like yours.

Well...the Barrowdowns is a pretty spooky place to be, so I think it fits.

shieldmaiden4xsword · 09-03-2006, 02:55 PM

you've got a point there. Does anyone like my avatar?

Encaitare · 09-03-2006, 04:07 PM

Hah, this avvie always gets interesting comments. It's probably my favorite one I've ever used, though.

Firefoot · 09-03-2006, 04:18 PM

The picture doesn't really gross me out unless it's the really large scale version.

For me, that picture is Encai.

Rune Son of Bjarne · 09-03-2006, 04:21 PM

haha

I only just realised that Enca's avy was not a "normal" face. Obviously I have no problem with it.

Enca's avatar is an image from the death card of a tarot deck. Right? I think I remember looking it up once upon a time and discovering that.

Hookbill the Goomba · 09-04-2006, 12:29 PM

Strangely enough, I'm rather a fan of Gil-Gallad's new Avatar. Can't think why...

Gil-Galad · 09-04-2006, 07:45 PM

i can't think why too hookbill...

Yes indeedy. The original image is here, but if the small picture freaks you out, I'd advise against looking at the big one. Muahahahaha....

Gil-Galad · 09-05-2006, 08:08 AM

Your right, the big one sends a shock to you

and it is titled 'Death' by the way, i had to look through all the pictures for it

I envy that McKean... His magical realism is perfection.
